Early the next morning, Porusalino was awakened by the noise in the port. After slowly getting up, washing and getting dressed, he walked to the deck of the battleship.

As soon as he arrived on the deck, Porusalino saw the right minister of Ryugu Castle with an anxious look on his face - it seemed that he had been waiting here for a while.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"Riot! After the treaty signed with the government was announced this morning, the citizens rioted! They gathered outside Ryugu Castle in unison. Princess Otohime has already gone to deal with it! Lieutenant General Porusalino! Hurry up and take a look.

!We are afraid that things will get out of control and something bad will happen..."

The right minister spoke very quickly, and his forehead was covered with sweat.

"Where are Major General Kuzan and Minister Guy?"

Porusalino asked.

"The two of them have already passed ahead of time!"

"Okay, let's go and find them."

…

Outside Ryugu City, it was already covered in a black mass of human heads. This morning, the radio telephone bugs placed throughout Ryugu Kingdom announced a news - Fishman Island and the World Government signed a series of treaties. Before the citizens understood it,

What happened? Why did a treaty with the World Government suddenly be signed? The contents of the treaty that were announced one by one directly ignited the anger of the people of Fish-Man Island.

"Ryuugong City betrayed our Fish-Man Island to the World Government! It trampled our dignity under its feet!"

"Reject unequal treaties! Fight to the end with the world government!"

"This is naked oppression! I can't breathe!!"

"Long live the Fishman Island! Long live the Fishmen and Mermaids!!"

"Take up arms! Defeat the naval invaders!"

"Overthrow the mediocre rule of Ryugu City! Fish-Man Island belongs to all citizens!"

…

The passionate slogans made the people more and more excited - the vast majority of people are usually relatively sober when they are alone, but once they are dragged into the crowd, their brains suddenly stop thinking, and soon

It is easy to become extreme, as is the case with so-called group fanaticism.

Not to mention that this so-called demonstration and resistance was also mixed with a lot of inciting words from people with ulterior motives - for example, some of the slogans were extremely exaggerated, and they even pointed the finger directly at the guys from Dragon Palace City, who often appeared in

The darkest corner of Fish-Man Island is Fish-Man Street.

"Princess Otohime, don't go there!"

The heavily armed Jinbei stopped Princess Otohime who was about to walk in front of the people. In front of him, the guards of Ryugu Castle formed a (fish) human wall to isolate the inside and outside.

"Everyone! Please listen to my explanation!!"

The noise of the people was really too loud. Princess Otohime, who is only 145cm tall and can be called skinny, screamed with all her strength, but no one could hear her.

"Go to hell! You princess who became a government lackey!!"

I don't know who in the crowd roared, and then everyone turned their attention to Princess Otohime, and the sky was immediately covered by a dark shadow - stones, dead fish, garbage, corals, all kinds of things.

Something like this was immediately thrown towards her.

"Careful! Otohime!"

A tall figure appeared from behind Princess Otohime, protected her in his arms, turned around and used his back to resist all attacks for her.

"Neptune!"

Princess Otohime raised her head in confusion. The person protecting her was none other than her husband.

"Stop it, everyone, stop it!!"

Jinbe gritted his teeth and roared: "Didn't you read all the treaties? King Neptune and Princess Otohime signed this treaty that was beneficial to everyone after careful consideration! They did not sell the fish.

Human Island!”

Jinbei's voice was not too quiet, but with the noise of so many people, not many people could hear it. Moreover, even if some people heard his words, they completely ignored him - Jinbei is not Tiger

, its influence among the murlocs was not that great, not to mention that almost everyone was carried away by their emotions at this time, so all kinds of throwing objects and even sharp weapons were thrown at them again.

"Major General Kuzan,"

Minister Guy, who was looking at this scene coldly, raised the corner of his mouth and nodded slightly with satisfaction, "It's time for you to take action. Isn't it time that the Navy will settle on Fish-Man Island in the future? You will still be the person in charge here,

Now is a good opportunity to establish your authority! Kill all these reckless guys!"

"Really, how can you be so noisy?"

Kuzan sighed, "It seems that I was too optimistic about the situation before..."

Indeed, the current Fish-Man Island is really sitting on a powder keg. If you are not careful, the excited people will immediately trample on the rule of Dragon Palace City and the treaty that has been signed with the government, and then in

Under the instigation of certain racial extremists, all the people participated in the war to fight the "evil" world government... and the final result was, of course, that the entire Fish-Man Island and all the fish-men and mermaids were blown up to the sky.

Princess Otohime is very sober, so she will never allow such a thing to happen.

Although her body is extremely weak, Princess Otohime is a natural possessor of the domineering power of seeing and hearing. Just like Red Earl Redfield and Pirate King Roger, she can sense the inner thoughts of others to a certain extent. Therefore, she can sense very much now.

It is clear that the anger in the hearts of the citizens is just a surface. Hidden behind the anger is the confusion that they feel betrayed by Ryugu City, and the fear and abandonment of the future.

In their view, Ryugu City, which they trust and respect, has already represented this country's surrender to the world government. What awaits them as ordinary citizens next is to be unscrupulously treated as slaves by humans, and to be discriminated against and treated at will.

The killings can be described as darkness and no hope at all.

After thoroughly understanding what the citizens were thinking, Princess Otohime was determined to appease them at all costs, but after all—

"Kalala!!!"

The extreme coldness suddenly swept across the world, suppressing all the words that Princess Otohime was about to blurt out, and also suppressed the loud noise outside.

"What's this?"

"Frozen!!!"

"An attack has been launched? Ryugu Castle has launched an attack on us!!!"

…

Panic voices suddenly emerged one after another, and the people were frightened - the reason why they dared to launch protests and demonstrations unscrupulously was because they felt that they were outnumbered, and they were sure that Dragon Palace City would not take action against them, but now...

…

The ground they were on had turned into a vast ice field, and the feet or fish tails of the nearly ten thousand people gathered here were frozen to the ground, unable to move at all.

"Can it be a little quieter?"

Outside the gate of Dragon Palace City, a huge spiral-shaped ice tower rose from the ground, instantly attracting everyone's attention. The tall and thin Kuzan stood on the top of the tower, holding a loudspeaker phone so that his voice could be heard.

spread easily to everyone's ears.

"My name is Kuzan, Rear Admiral Kuzan of the Navy Headquarters. According to the treaty signed between Fishman Island and the World Government, after this, our navy will establish a permanent base on Fishman Island, and I will serve as the top commander of the base.

principal."

"Rear Admiral of the Navy... Headquarters?"

"I've heard of him! Major General Kuzan! One of the three natural monsters in the Navy Headquarters! He's so powerful that it's terrifying!"

"Is this what he did? A natural frozen fruit ability user!"

"Damn it - why is this guy here!"

The fishmen and mermaids gathered here looked at each other. Not all of them were extremely racist or had evil intentions - the vast majority of them had only read the beginning of the treaty, or had not read it at all.

Treaty, I simply felt betrayed, so I turned my anger into temporary courage, came here to ask for an explanation and vent my anger.

"You should take a good look at those treaties, use your own eyes to see clearly, and use your own heads to think clearly. Are those treaties really the betrayal of Ryugu City to you? Are they really the oppression of you by the World Government?"

"Moreover, putting aside the treaties themselves, have you ever thought about why the World Government suddenly allowed our navy to appear here? Fish-Man Island is also a member of the World Government and a member of the World Government. We

The navy is supposed to be your protector..."

Kuzan's voice was calm and powerful, and his move to unleash his astonishing freezing ability made him very intimidating. Many fish and mermaids' heated brains had calmed down and listened to his words.

"I'm going to tell you now, the reason why the navy suddenly appeared on Fish-Man Island on a large scale after hundreds of years - a few days ago, Fisher Tiger, a pirate from Fish-Man Island, attacked the world's nobles

Their residence, the Holy Land Marie Joa, started a great slave unrest! The fire was released! The Celestial Dragons were violated, and the majesty of the World Government was affected! Our navy came to Fishman Island with a mission,

And it also has the power to completely wipe out Fish-Man Island if there are special circumstances!"

It has to be said that under the influence of Porusalino, today's Kuzan has learned his tricks in a good way - just this move of pulling the tiger's skin to pull the flag and then throwing dirty water on it is enough.

Porusalino looked at it and nodded secretly.

"What?! Fisher Tiger invaded Mariejoia?! Attacked the Draco?!"

"Brother Tiger, why are you so impulsive! He is a descendant of the Creator!!"

"...Hey, will the Navy completely wipe out Fish-Man Island?"

"Are you kidding! It's impossible!"

…

Seeing that the people were already led by him, Kuzan continued:

"Yes, we did only come with one warship, but this ship carries more than a thousand sailors! Each of them is an elite who has fought against brutal pirates!"

"More importantly, as the responsible officer, I am not the only one, but also Chief Guy, who comes from the World Government and fully represents the world's nobles! And my senior, Lieutenant General Porusalino, candidate for Navy Admiral!"

At this point, Kuzan's voice stopped - and then his feet suddenly exerted force, his body jumped high, and two icicles suddenly appeared from the center of his open palms.

The icicles slanted upward, their length skyrocketed, getting longer and longer, until they penetrated the special outer layer of Fish-Man Island and came into contact with the seawater layer outside.

“ice age!!!”

This is probably the first time Kuzan has used his frozen fruit ability to its full potential since he became an esper. In just a few seconds, the seawater outside Fish-Man Island was completely frozen, forming an ice ball with a thickness of tens of meters.

The shell completely enclosed the Fish-Man Island in the middle!

"What...what is this?!"

"It's frozen!! Fishman Island is frozen!!!"
